Got some new shoes for the girl today. Was not the BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A K02's that I wanted, but all is good.

Got Cooper Discoverer A/T's at WalMart, LT265/70R17 E rated 121s, four tires OTD for $830, mounted, with lifetime balance and road hazard.

I had Cooper Discoverers in the same size before Goodyear bought them out and they lasted 81K miles, hope these last just as long.

I also liked that the originals had OWL's, loved the white lettering out. Made them pop, IMO. These, as you can see, do not. :confused:

Time will tell how they hold up.

P.S. Pardon my dirty rims....lol

I have run Coopers before. Good tires and a good price with mounting and balancing included in that price.

I'm envious @EdGs. I recently paid 2.7K for new shoes. Different application obviously. It always feel nice to have new shoes. I don't know jack about those tires from personal experience, but I think "from what I have seen in the historical archive", with your application, you'll be good. I could be wrong and you don't put mileage on your truck, but it sure looks like you do from what I have gathered, don't think you will have any expiration issues in the limited time they will be used!!! I see you forgot to put lipstick on them before you took the pic, looking a little "not so glossy". :D :D :D

Looking good, I got Wildpeaks AT4's on mine 2 March 2026. Mine were $1150.13 OTD. But not from Wally World, local tire shop.

I hope the last like the old Discoverer AT's that I had before. Fingers crossed.

Yeah, I've been slacking on the detailing, I'll post up a pic when I finally get to it.
